Last Chance Nordic Ski club will be hosting a free skate ski class for beginners this Saturday at noon at Bill Roberts Golf Course. This class will be geared towards first time skate skiers or skiers with a little skate ski experience but want to learn to be more efficient and to brush up on the basics of skate skiing.

We’ll focus on fundamentals such as balancing on one ski at a time, weight shift, body position, and poling and we’ll also introduce the V1 and V2 techniques. Previous cross country or downhill skiing experience will be useful for beginners. Meet in the main Bill Roberts Golf Course parking lot off of Benton Avenue at noon.

If needed, ski rentals are available at The Base Camp. We currently have three instructors lined up, but if other club members would like to show up and help, that would be great.
